I think that i would start by removing the emblems reading RAM 1500
i always thought the 1500 part looks strange

as for the bumpers, i think that i would get them painted or powder coated
I think i like the metal front bumper & getting it painted will still give you the strength, without all that chrome look
I am always wondering if my plastic bumper will even stand up to a slight bump

 

Id say paint it all to match truck and as far as black trucks with chrome BLAH lol chrome looks good on 70's muscle cars

 

agreed!

I would get the fender flares body colored. Debadge it like GTyankee stated, and probably leave the bumpers chrome. You have and awesome truck and to do the bumpers black..would make it look like a cheaper version of the badass truck you bought! Not bashing the guys with those bumpers, but you paid extra for that chrome! Or you could always get them painted body color also would look awesome. lol

 

belive its the other way around its more for the painted bumpers

 

There is a red truck just like yours around here with chrome handles/bumpers ect. It looks great. I love red trucks with chrome

 

I have been thinking about taking those emblems off for a bit, but overall I kinda like them. Might wait a bit for that! But I did just order some bushwacker pocket style fender flares! Super excited. Will probably get them paint matched an put them on immediately.

 

Anti-Chrome !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I agree

I like both but it depends on the model of Ram. On the Express and Sport models, body color bumpers and grill = no chrome (but I wouldn't black out the Ram head). On the Laramie and Big Horn editions where you have chrome bumpers, grill, and door handles - I like the chrome. I've added chrome mirror covers and bug sheild to my white Big Horn and grill inserts. I have rims on order but they are bright polished silver (not chrome but close).

Chrome don't get 'ya home...and it may also be the work of the devil! LOL

Black fender flares - I covered this in another thread.

I'd ditch the chrome bumpers and go with maybe some aftermarket offroad bumper.
